My story

 
Thank you for visiting my FAIRBRIDGE JustGiving page.

 

Last year alone, Fairbridge helped 3,728 young people, almost two-thirds of whom went on to achieve something tangible. They returned to the classroom, started a college course, got a qualification or found a job. Over a thousand are still actively engaged in the Programme. For these young people, Fairbridge was a new start – a chance to show the world who they really are. Fairbridge worked.

 

I have been working with the organisation for over a year now and am still dazzled by our extraordinary staff – their dedication and their passion for helping improve young lives – and the staggering stories of transformation that our young people go through when given the right support and encouragement.

 

Please do watch the film clip attached when you have a moment – it lasts approx 5 minutes. In this difficult year of all years, please dig deep -  your support is hugely appreciated.

 

Many thanks

Andrew
